Get a CEMAC Buyer’s Permit

In Cameroon, a CEMAC Buyer’s Permit is issued by the government only, precisely the Ministry of Mines, Industries and Technological Developments abbreviated in french MINMIDT meaning Ministère des Mines, des Industries et des Développements Technologiques.

Since Cameroon is a CEMAC Member State, a CEMAC Buyer’s Permit is required for the purchase of gold and many other precious stones. The process of getting the permit is easy. Simply go to the MINMIDT official website, visit the permit download page and download the CEMAC Buyer’s Permit application form.

The application form is self explanatory. It contains vital information such as different permit duration and their costs. We will be very happy to help you accurately fill the form if there are some questions that do not appear very clear or obvious to you.

Although the permit acquisition is a straight-forward process, intermediaries such as representatives of gold miners, gold refineries and gold traders can apply for the permit on behalf of their clients. If a client takes advantage of this provision and allows us apply for the permit on their behalf, they will be able to cut down all intermediary costs and also considerably cut down the wait period from weeks to just a few days.
